I discovered Stark after trying several gyms and personal trainers. I don’t like the callous and impersonal aspect of most gyms, and Stark feels like a family and the results are life changing.

I've been an enthusiastic client of Stark's since 2010. They've not only helped me get in shape, the trainers and staff have supported my nutrition, sleep and digestive needs with recommendations, education and plans to keep my entire wellbeing on track. I have yet to work with a staff member who isn't enthusiastic about Stark and what they do there and just make you feel welcome every time you walk in the door.

I’ve been at Stark for around 3 months now and here’s my honest review of everything I’ve experienced so far. From top to bottom, the entire facility is on top of it. Each department serves a purpose that helps you get to where you need to be. Starting with the receptionists Leyla and Cidney. They’re super sweet, always greeting you with a smile. If you ever need anything taken care of it gets done quickly. The trainers are all very passionate about fitness and working at stark! I have had the pleasure of working specifically with Vic, and she’s amazing. All the trainers are great about pushing you to the max but making sure you’re comfortable and uninjured. Moving on to the chiro team - incredible. Andrea got me all set up and I’ve been working with Phil. I can honestly say he has been the best chiropractor i’ve worked with and I’ve begun to feel real changes in my mobility that I haven’t previously. Dr. Alice, the naturopathic doctor at Stark Tustin has changed my life. Prior to coming to Stark, I dealt with a ton of inflammation and autoimmune issues that I could’t shake. I’ve been to several doctors over the years, and they haven’t been able to find a solution for me. After doing bloodwork and sitting down with Dr. Alice, not only was she able to pinpoint why my body was reacting but she was able to help me fix it in less than a couple months. Ricky, who handles the dexa scans there, is so great at making sure everyone gets what they need from the scan and that all measurements are taken accurately. Olivia, the nutritionist, is great at keeping you in check and really works on making sure you feel and look like your best self. The manager, Richie, helps a ton with making sure the environment is tailored towards this positive atmosphere and really motivates you to doing well. I could go on and on about the benefits of this place, but overall the entire team makes a huge effort to have a great cohesive environment and they’re always there when you need them. If you’re looking for a one stop shop that will actually make you feel better then I would very much recommend stark!

Stark is personal training personified! While the arduous work is up to me, the Team at Stark provides me with every tool required to be successful and achieve my goals. I am supported in all aspects of my health, and the training is incredible. For me, it’s all about the people and I am glad to have the help from experts that care about my journey.

The Team at Stark starts with smart, dedicated and extremely knowledgeable professionals that assemble themselves seamlessly into my support group. I have access to all manner of disciplines available that coalesce into my program, which is dynamic (changes as I do).

Sounds like gushing, I know. But it's heartfelt and based on my experience. The TRIBE empowers me in a manner that I want to be accountable and thus successful.

Stark is a "one stop" location for your health. They tailor your workouts specifically to your fitness goals. The trainers are great, as well as the Doctor on staff, and the Dexascan (no extra charge) every six weeks to help you determine your progress...I highly recommend for anyone looking to improve their health, in a very efficient way.

Joining start has been a life-changing experience. I gained such confidence from the way they teach you about nutrition and their unique way of training is like no other experience I’ve ever had. I never expected at 58 years old to be healthier and stronger then my 20s 30s and 40s simply incredible!!

The one thing I can't say enough about the Stark concept is that it WORKS! They have the 360 degree approach to health and wellness down to a science! It's really as easy as doing what you're told. The doctors, nutritionists and trainers take all the guess work out of getting healthy and fit. I competed in the Stark Naked Challenge this year, and all I did was follow instructions. I ate the way I was instructed to, I did the weight training I was instructed to and I got in my cardio as I was instructed to and the change in my physical and mental health has been amazing! Never, even as young athlete (gymnast), did I have a body fat percentage of 12.5, but now, as an almost 52 year old woman, I have a body fat percentage of 12.5! Wow Wow Wow!
I had been struggling for several years with joint pain, unexplainable weight gain, mental and physical fatigue among other ailments. My primary doctor couldn't come up with the reason. Dr. Alice at Stark diagnosed me with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. She recommended I eliminate gluten and dairy from my diet. That was hard! I LOVE bread and ice cream. But, within a few months, I started to feel better. After the 20 weeks of the Stark Naked Challenge and rigorously adhering to the appropriate diet for my body, all of those symptoms are gone. I've never felt better!

Loving my experience at Stark! Love that I can focus on strength training with my coach, learn what cardio I need to do, have medical labs done and reviewed by a doctor, and have a nutritionist tell me my food sensitivities (w/blood work). You have a team of people who work together for you. Each program is designed per your ability after being evaluated by a chiropractor. I’ll be moving back to the east coast in the Fall and hope you guys expand to the east coast someday. I’ve had a great trainer there but this is next level. Thank you!

There's not enough words to explain just how incredible Stark is. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed. The integrative approach Stark has is so unique you can't find it anywhere else. My experience here at stark has been life changing. This place has also transformed my way of thinking when it comes to health and fitness. Everything here is backed by science and Stark does an outstanding job making things clear and structured for each individual to follow. What ties everything together though is the amazing service you get at Stark. This is the place if you want to make real changes.

Joining Stark in 2021 was the best choice I have ever made for my physical, and even mental, wellbeing. From the moment I walked in, I felt like a celebrity in the best way possible. Everyone was so genuinely excited to meet me! My experiences with each facet of my team at Stark have been top notch. From chiropractic care, to training, to naturopathic medical services I have never felt more supported. Stark has taken great care to hire experts in their fields and it shows.

The decision I made 6 months ago was my best decision for last 36 years (of course after my marriage 🤣🤣). Lifting weights are totally fine for an obese guy like me but hardest part is feeling comfortable while you were our of breath during simple move or cant even figure it out how to do it, those guys are amazing they are ready to work with you, encourage you, support you, if you are ready for it. If you are reading this review and thinking about joining Stark, please at least stop by and meet with them trust me it will be your best decision too 🚀🚀

Stark Fitness has inspired me to be the best version of myself. Through a holistic, comprehensive and personalized approach, my program is designed for my goals, abilities and schedule. For the first time in over a decade, I enjoy working out and am seeing consistent results. My trainer, Billy, along with the other Stark experts, motivates me to live a lifestyle of wellness. The staff's enthusiastic support and positive encouragement bring energy and fun to every session. Every coach/trainer and client are on a first name basis and the culture at Stark is focused on building a community of kind, fit, happy humans.

I was diagnosed with insulin resistant PCOS by my endocrinologist and she put me on meds and I still wasn't getting better. Then I came here and saw Dr. Alice and she ran all kinds of blood test my endocrinologist didn't. 7 months later and I am off all my prescription meds and feeling the best I have in the last 3 years. I highly recommend this place to anyone who hasn't been feeling 100% themselves and doctors are just putting you on different meds and nothing is working.

With my husband turning 60 and me turning 55, we decided it was time to tune up and get stronger so we can avoid a slow deterioration in our health as we aged. I thought we were pretty healthy and knowledgeable to start, but after doing the initial assessment including a blood test, we quickly realized we weren't as healthy as we thought and we had a lot of misinformation about nutrition. After 3 months at Stark, we have visibly grown more muscles and our blood retests have improved overall. Stark is different than other gyms because they take a holistic approach and they have a wonderful and caring team to help you achieve your goals. It's a wise investment in yourself.

Is it possible to give somewhere 6 stars?

This organization, people, process and facilities have been life changing.

I was overweight, suffering a variety of mental and physical ailments and lost on how to get control over my health.

The Stark method has enabled me to take back control of my eating habits, start an exercise routine, control my health issues and take back control of my life.

Above all else, you will feel welcomed and immediately at home no matter your physical, mental or health challenges. The people are one of a kind and simply the best you will find in Orange County.

I will be forever grateful I found Stark.

Pick up the phone today and book an appointment. You will not regret it!

If you are serious about getting in shape, Stark will be just as serious in tailoring a program to achieve your goals. The one on one approach by all the employees is just what I needed to get me on track. Personal trainer, nutritionist, chiropractor, and medical Dr. All working together to improve my health. It is expensive, but I figure I would rather pay now for good health than pay later for poor health.

Newly retired, I wanted to spend this year focused on my health and fitness. I needed to lose weight, build muscle, and improve my mobility and flexibility. After 9 months, I am well on my way to my goals and STARK has been an integral partner in my journey.
The concierge service approach provided by STARK is what makes this fitness facility a cut above the rest. STARK is a full-service gym with knowledgeable personal trainers, nutrition guidance, and naturopathic and chiropractic doctors on staff. Utilizing high-tech scanning and diagnostic equipment, the staff work together to ensure your fitness and wellness journey is successful.

I came into Stark Fitness back in December of 2019 when I was at about the end of my health rope. I was having issues with long term post concussive symptom, along with long term radial nerve impingement all resulting from serious trauma in a car accident. What made Stark a very unique experience for me, was that they were able to address ALL of my health issues in just one location, in addition to helping me achieve better physical fitness.
In particular, I would like to give additional praise to the trainer Rebekka Tucker, as she truly went the extra mile in helping me get back to where I am today. Not only was she willing to meet me at 5am, 4 times a week for my workouts, but provided me significant nutritional education, mental health support, and physical fitness education outside the gym. As someone who has been very physically active their entire lives, it's very difficult to see yourself in so much pain that simple stretches become your entire workout. However, thanks to Rebekka and the Stark team, my ailments have very substantially improved and I'm back to deadlifting over 300lbs again, optimal health is within clear sight!

I’ve been working out at Stark for nearly 4 years now and it has truly been a transformative experience for my health and well being. I’ve found the 360 comprehensive approach to health optimization, strength training, nutrition, individualized supplementation and mobility as being extremely unique. Despite being a CEO with limited time, I’ve garnered very meaningful results and feel the best I’ve ever have.

Bekka is my coach at Stark and is extremely well versed in nutrition, strength training, conditioning, mobility and most importantly, making sure I’m using proper form with each movement so I’m not only getting the most out of each workout but avoiding injury and protecting my joints. I continue to progress thanks to her expertise and care in making sure that I’m pushing myself safely. She also follows up on my diet regularly to make sure I’m doing my part out of the gym as well. Lastly, I’ll say that she makes the chore of working out actually really enjoyable which for me is really important in maintaining consistency!

After two boys, gaining weight was normal. I have been trying to lose weight, but it’s been a great struggle. I'm 51. I've been working out for over 30 years to "try" to trim down but always felt "fluffy."

Stark provides a wealth of knowledge that is offered when it comes to making working out part of a healthy lifestyle. I came to Stark hopefully for a new beginning but found out it's about learning that our bodies keep changing, inside & out. Under the guidance of their coaches and staff, it is more than just a place to exercise. I have learned to work out much more efficiently. I used to think that I had to put my body through pain to see results! That's far from the truth! I pay attention to what I'm eating. I've cut out foods that have caused inflammation in my body and began supplementing with vitamins to keep my body running effectively. Thank you Stark Team for the opportunity you have given me to feel and look better in my fifties!

Since starting at Stark, not only have my health and fitness improved dramatically, but it's been something that has positively impacted my family. Both my wife and I have learned about healthy eating habits, how to exercise properly, and how to maintain an overall healthy lifestyle. But we've also created habits that will be better for our children also.

First of all STARK is amazing!!! I learned about Stark through an auction package that my boyfriend won for me. I did not know what to expect but I was excited to start whatever it took to get me on a healthier path in my life--I like food and I hated exercise but I knew I needed to do something for my health. I came in borderline diabetic (no longer in the range) with other medical issues. The staff is very helpful and friendly, I now consider them my family and look forward to seeing them, hearing their greetings, and seeing their smiles when i walk through the doors. Stark consists of a Naturopathic Doctor, Chiropractic Doctor, Quality Personal One on One Trainers, and a friendly office staff. I had food sensitivity panels and thorough blood work-more extensive than what my regular doctor would do and the results have been mind blowing. Cutting out certain foods that were affecting my body in a negative way has been a blessing. I would have never known to cut out these foods with out their testings. My package was for three months and I have been at Stark ever since...and that was May of 2018. who knew that someone like me would stick with this for over a year. Today I am not where I want to be physically but I am not where I was either. I am stronger, healthier and carrying less weight and I will continue to work with my Trainer Brandon, Dr. Alice, Dr. Chen, Amir, Tyler and the entire Stark Family. This is my Happiest Place on earth after my home. You will not be disappointed.
I am happily keeping on the road to transformation.
Highly recomend that you come in and try them.
Thank you Stark!

I also love how they do a complete blood panel and the most important thing I loved is the food panel which shows your sensitives. This was truly an eye opener because once you recognize what sensitivities you have, you’re able to change your diet to help reach your heath/fitness goals. I come here twice a week and love it!

I have been working out for over 30 years to stay in shape so I can continue to play sports and be able to look fit my clothes. But as I creeped up into my 40's and hit fifty, it was harder to maintain or lose weight. I've read all what to do, but to actually do it correctly, that's another thing. Doing the weight training with Nicco, nutrition education, Dr Alice's guidance with my supplements and convenience of having a chiropractor (Justin) in house, I was able to lose 7 pounds within 6 weeks. I am enjoying the experience at Stark. Thank you!

I noticed significant positive changes in my wife's life (and appearance) after she joined Stark, and over time I met a number of the trainers and other staff. They began coaching me before I ever stepped in the gym: universally positive attitudes; serious about health, but not psycho, overbearing serious; fun/friendly; happy. I felt like I was missing out on something by not joining Stark. I was right.

I have struggled with getting my weight down over the years. A lot of bad choices with food and alcohol resulted in me gaining weight and peaking at 265lbs. I’d been on a long journey just to get myself down to about 232 before joining Stark. This seemed to be the floor that I just couldn’t break through. I am happy to say that because of Stark and the team that they have, I’ve been able to drop the weight to about 213. I still have a bit more that I want to lose but I know that with this team behind me, it’s only a matter of time! Great place, great people. You won’t find anything else like this out there!

Stark is beyond the best gym you can find, anywhere. The best part is that it’s not just a gym, but an all encompassing program designed to meet your health needs and fitness goals to truly optimize your life! The coaches, doctors, staff, and leadership are all focused on helping you to meet and exceed your health and fitness dreams. They don’t just coach and treat you, they genuinely care about every student (client) and do everything they can to get you into the best health and fitness shape possible.

I was out of shape and struggling with health problems when I moved here. I was introduced to Stark through a friend and scheduled my first appointment. Within 6 weeks I not only felt the best I had ever felt, but looked the best I had ever looked. 6 WEEKS! Training 3 days a week, learning about nutrition, and getting personalized care from licensed NMD’s and CPT’s, and applying the Stark method improved my life tenfold.

I’ve been a student at Stark for over 4 years now. They have truly changed my life for the better, and continue to do so. Take the leap, visit any of the locations, and see for yourself. You won’t regret it.

Stark is by far the most complete training I’ve ever experienced. It’s a fun place to work out and each workout is specific to your personal goals, whether fat loss, adding lean mass, or both. Nutrition plans are also specific to each member and those plans change with bodily changes and goal adjustments.
Members have access to chiropractic care and a Naturopathic doctor for all around health.
The trainers are extremely knowledgeable. They help each member with close attention to form and technique during workouts, keep them motivated and accountable through instruction and personal contact to ensure all is well when outside as well as inside the gym. I can guarantee that no other training facility does what Stark does. Go check it out!

The atmosphere is unparalleled and the energy is always high and positive. Every coach knows your name and welcomes you as you come into the gym. They all care and want you to succeed and create long lasting habits that turn into a better lifestyle. Not to mention the docs on staff are phenomenal. Have yet to experience anything like the Stark experience, and I’m so glad to be a part of the family!

Stark is incredible. You think you know what a "gym" is, and you quickly realize that you don't. You think you know what a "Doctor's Office" is, and you quickly realize that you don't. Stark delivers the best atmosphere and plans to get you in the best in the best shape. At the end of the day, they truly care about you and what's best for you. They are focused on me and not themselves. 10 Stars.

Only join Stark if you want to be stronger, healthier, happier and to have an increased quality of life. I was introduced to Stark by a friend who had experienced "transformational" results. I was a naturally active, healthy person with occasional but consistent low back pain, who wanted to improve his surfing ability and was interested in investing in long-term health. I didn't think that I needed "transformation." I am six weeks in, I have lost 10 lbs. and more importantly experienced a significant, positive shift in body composition. I think about food differently, I have more energy, and I am stronger, especially in areas that I was (unknowingly) weak. I am not suggesting that Stark is a six week weight loss program. Check back with me in a year to see what my long-term results have been. I am saying that my expectations have been dramatically exceeded in a short, six week period of time. Importantly, my back feels much looser and stronger due to the integrated approach to chiropractic care, diet and strength training. Join, put in the work and you'll experience tremendous results. If you surf my home break, don't join because I want to be stronger than you so I get all of the good waves ;)

I would highly recommend Stark to anybody who wants to create consistency in their fitness, lifestyle, and a comprehensive approach to your overall health. Stark is the next level 360 degree lifestyle in which you have a full staff that supports and manages your process to help you achieve your goals. The entire team is well trained, extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about assisting students in receiving the results they have set off to achieve. There are hundreds of choices of where you can go for your fitness, but if you are looking to make a considerable change, you will want to consider Stark.

Stark is no mere gym. It is a comprehensive approach to wellness that encompasses all aspects of fitness, nutrition, and healthy living. I'm constantly amazed at the positive attitudes and professionalism of the trainers and staff, not to mention their expertise. All of my already lofty expectations have been exceeded and I continue to be impressed. This is Orange County's premier place to become and stay fit and I highly recommend it.

They really are a 360 degree gym. This is the best I’ve ever felt in my life! They have helped me in every area applied to fitness. I feel stronger, more energized, no more body aches and pains, and through the blood work and IV therapy by Dr, Alice I haven’t gotten sick in years and I’m the leanest I’ve ever been. Definitely the best gym to workout at in Southern California!

I have been training at Stark since January 2013 and have loved my experience! I started training there after my husband started training there and was happy with his experience and results. I have worked with other personal trainers and gyms in the past but always felt like they just wanted my membership. At Stark I feel like my trainer, Kristina and the other trainers that work there really want me to be there and accomplish my goals. Everyone is very positive, motivating and listens to you. The training, supplements and diet are all built around my specific needs and body composition. My husband and I heard about Stark from friends and have since sent other friends over too.

I have more energy, feel great and ready to take on each day.....ALL because of Stark and their fabulous philosophy of helping individuals live their optimal life. From the moment you walk through the door you know that this is NO ordinary gym/training facility....from their monthly health audits, personal one on one training (love you Tyler!!) and care for each of their clients to the support staff that are always there for me.
I love Stark and the Stark Team!!!

The experience I had a Stark was second to none. As a professional athlete I was looking for a top notch training facility and a knowledgable staff. Stark was perfect. The staff was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to customize workouts. I had a great time getting in great shape! Brad and Tyler are awesome to work with. Can't say enough good things!

I have been going to Stark training for over a year and I LOVE it. Stark has the best and most knowledgable staff I have ever trained with. All the trainers really care about the progress of everyone regardless of whether or not they are training you personally. They are always happy to answer questions and help you reach your goals. They make the workouts fun but always challenging. The atmosphere at the gym is awesome. Not only are the trainers and staff super friendly but the clients are as well. It truly is a family. I cannot recommend it highly enough. With the guidance of their professional staff I met and exceeded my fitness goals. At 51 I am in the best shape of my life. Whatever your fitness level and goals are, Stark will get you there!

When I first started working out at Stark I weighed 265 lb's, for a person that's only 5'5'' in stature this is a lot. But Stark helped me shed the weight, every single person that works at stark is extremely motivational and attentive to their clients. They ensure in more ways than just by training and advising a good diet, that their clients get the help they need to succeed and reach their goals. I could honestly say that without the help and support that I've gotten from Stark, I would not have lost 70 lbs on my own.
Thank you Stark for getting me on the right track to healthy living

I've always been an avid athlete, experimenting with various forms of weight and interval training. Most recently, I was a CrossFitter for two years. When I came to Stark 6 months ago, I was incredibly impressed by the in-depth level of knowledge both from a nutrition as well as biophysical perspective. They truly understand the human body and their trainers are top notch (Tyler is outstanding). They are way ahead of the curve and I'm excited to see their newest developments in the coming months. The best training facility in Orange County.

Stark Training has changed my perception of fitness. They run a very respectable business and have taught me so much more about my body then just getting into shape. I used to play volleyball at USC and worked out 5 days a week, yet I find myself in better shape now, just working out at Stark twice a week. All of the trainers are so great to work with, and they have challenged me to get better both with my diet and workouts every week. The protein shakes you earn at the end are awesome too. I don't see myself ever not working out at Stark.

Being a soccer player my entire life I always thought I knew my body's potential but Stark took it to an entirely different level. Through their tailored diet and workout plans I've seen better results than I had throughout my soccer career. I am in the best shape of my life and stronger than I've ever been.

The great thing about Stark is the amount of care they give to each client. They take time to personalize programs based on my desired goals and you never get bored with the programs because they are constantly changing and challenging.

I really enjoy their Saturday morning FIT classes. This is a group circuit workout that really gets you sweating! It is affordable and an amazing workout. Tyler is extremely encouraging and makes sure everyone is getting a great workout.

Definitely the best gym around!!

I've been training at Stark for a couple of years and the knowledge base of the trainers at this gym surpasses all other gyms that I have ever been too. Their methods are scientifically supported for the quickest results based on your specific needs. I personally dropped 3% body fat in my first 3 weeks after having worked out on a constant bases for years with just stable results.

I highly recommend this training facility for anyone who is looking for solid results that will be long lasting.

I started going to Stark last year to prepare for my wedding.. Little did I know if would be a complete life changer for me. For someone who hated everything about gyms, I was so reluctant to go in. As soon as I started my training though, my fears & intimidation about gyms faded. The team at Stark is not only professional, knowledgeable but the most inspiring group of people I've been around. Their training programs are challenging & definitely help you achieve your goals. Obviously you have to do your part & keep a consistent schedule & stick with their diet programs. I'm a few months away from my wedding now but going to Stark has developed to be so much more than getting in shape for the wedding.. It's about feeling amazing every day because of the amount of energy I have now, leading a balanced & healthy diet & surrounding myself with motivational people. I couldn't express more gratitude to these trainers especially Chelsea, who pushes me everyday to achieve my goals.

I joined Stark back in 2010 in preparation for my 40th birthday. I always thought that I was in great shape until I actually saw (in B/W) what my body fat was compared to my weight. I then realized that as i am getting older, I needed to do something fast about it! The beauty of Stark, is that they train you and also teach you how to eat properly. The trainers are top notch and very well educated, as they are always learning what is new and innovative and are constantly taking classes by some well known folks in the industry. They also taught me that DIET is everything, not just showing up for workouts. They also have some great chiropractors and physical therapists on hand. Without that service, I would not be where I am today. I was originally 175 lbs and 24% body fat and am now am down to 155 lbs and 6% body fat! A truly magnificent transformation to a guy like me. I have a busy business life, just like everyone else, but through Stark's amazing programs, client interaction, well knowledgable staff, and awesome atmosphere, I am able to reach all of my goals. I strongly recommend Stark to anyone who really wants to improve their way of life. They truly are life savers!

With over 2 years of training at Stark, I'm comfortable saying that Stark is the best option for personal training available. My workout and diet was tailored for my lifestyle and goals, and of course, for results.

The workouts were always incredibly challenging, and never once have I been injured from the intense training. They are always cognizant of my limitations and potential.

At Stark, they understand and respect that I need peak performance in my daily life first, in the gym second.

That is what I got. Peak performance in my daily life...good sleep, high energy throughout my day, and a lean, strong body.

I trust the Stark Training staff implicitly, and am comfortable referring anyone to their care, and their challenge: "Man Up!"
